Lithology Comments

Nov 29, 2012 (A Wilson) - Mineralization is hosted in a quartz vein hosted by andestic and basaltic metavolcanics which strike northeast and dip vertically or steeply southeast. The metavolcanics show a prominent flow top breccia. A quartz vein strikes 17°W and dips 75°SW, and is comprised of quartz stringers 2 to 6 inches wide. The vein contains only low gold values.

Mineralization Comments

Nov 29, 2012 (A Wilson) - Assays of 0.323 oz/t Au over 10.4 feet and 0.223 oz/t Au over 11.7 feet were obtained from samples collected from a trench in mafic metavolcanics. These samples were collected from the hanging wall side of the trench. Additional grab samples collected by MacVeigh from the trench returned values up to 1.39 oz/t Au.
